I need opinions (rank)

Many people can agree that rank is pretty easy to rank up (or down.)

Do you feel as if ranking should take a lot longer to rank up? Why or why not? Just wanted to hear some opinions from both sides (survivors and killers)

    Rank system needs to be reworked. Someone can be close to useless and still rank up.
    Also it would be nice if there were seasons, like in Rocket League.

    Yeah I’ve played against very low ranked killers as a higher ranked survivor. The same thing had happened to me while I was playing killer the ranking system is very odd. Of course it’s somewhat rare but it still happens.

    Ranking at the moment doesn’t even have a proper skillcap you can play SWF, be the worst survivor and still rank up pretty easily.

    Ranking in-general is a flawed system. Any schmuck with leatherface that camps someone on a hook till death or pretty much ANY NOED USER gets to rank 1 pretty easily even if they're trash.

    I see it all the time, someone gets demolished in a match, but all of a sudden because NOED comes to save the day they down someone and down two more people before everyone else either dies or escapes. And even if you go and save the hooked survivors you're gonna get hooked yourself and or they also will get downed again.

    Either that or you can just be wraith and camp someone on a hook and you're basically invisible when you stand still so nothing can be done. Any potatoe can get to rank 1 on survivor or killer and it shines through in their matches that they got there from cheap tactics. Some rank 1's can be pretty good killers, but some can also be garbage and use NOED every game and or use leatherface because its too hard to use any other killer apparently.

    DBD does not have a ranking system. DBD is not a football match where either team A or Team B wins.

    DBD is a football match where any team can win as long as they score 2 goals. I'll let you figure out everything wrong about that.

    Instead we should: Link: Chapter 2

    So it doesn't matter how short/how long the grind is. We're not dealing with a ranking system.

    It should take longer and it should be harder to rank up.

    Why?
    Why even have a rank system if everybody can reach rank 1 anyway? Might aswell remove it completely then if you ask me....

    It's about time played not much else for survivor, knowledge of the game helps but no skill is needed with the emblem system, the only thing that can stop you pipping is a camping killer or rushing gens.

    Killer is a bit harder but only slightly and only if they do the gens quickly, even then a lot of the time they screw around for extra BP afterwards so you get one or two.

    The problem they have in making it more difficult is it needs to be done on both sides, the last time they made survivor more difficult to pip the killer queues at high rank were the longest they had been without it being a bug, so they changed it, this will be the main issue with changing anything, keeping enough if each side being able to rank up.

    As Legion you can do no kills but just hit survivors to waste time and you will still rank up :silenced:

    The fact you can die and Rank up is stupid.

    Do you Rank up in Overwatch when you lose the game?
